Enya New Age (Alternative) Music Artist
As far as my musical taste goes, I would say that I am more of a soul, and rap type of guy, but there are always about four or five songs from all genres that I really enjoy and thus add to my collection.
Of all the genres though, I …
Stampeders Canada Day Concert
I have been a huge fan of the 1970’s Canadian rock band, The Stampeders my whole life. My parents loved them before I was born, so I grew up listening to them, and for the last 5 years I have been blessed to see them each year at the …
Delta CD by Delta Goodrem
Delta is the newest CD that is released by singer/songwriter Delta Goodrem. The album being released in 2007, has many new and fresh songs by Delta.

Chickenfoot Get Your Buzz On Live Dvd
The Chickenfoot Live Dvd Get Your Buzz on! is one of the Dvds I’ve been waiting for awhile and when the supergroup finally released a copy at best buy I picked it up and couldn’t wait to finally watch it live. When I saw this dvd it was actually …
The Beatles - Sun King (Song)

She be Like by Git Fresh
What I do remember in this song is the part where Git Fresh is sing Bam bam bam part and the ding ding ding ding part. It also uses the intro of the song Tom’s Dinner by Suzanne Vega, so it is easy to remember. It is a great …
“Matchess” by Underdog (Compilation, 2010, Bridge 9)
Underdog is arguably one of the greatest hardcore punk bands to ever surface. Unfortunately, until recently most of their recorded material has been obscure and hard to find anywhere. But Bridge 9 Records released “Matchless”- a compilation that puts together combines their “The Vanishing Point” and “Demos” albums together …
Kris Aquinos’ The Greatest Love Album
Kris Aquinos’ The Greatest Love Album was given to me by a friend. I was actually surprised when she first told me over phone that she would give me this Kris’ album because I know this girl could not sing. She maybe a very good host and indeed an …
Fall Out Boy - Infinity on High
This is the second album of Fall Out Boy that I’ve heard. It’s really good, but for some reason I love the first one (From Under the Cork tree) better. I was watching (guess what…) MTV (again! Is anyone seeing a pattern here?) and I saw the music video …
Tool 10,000 Days CD
It had been quite a while since the release of Lateralus, Tool’s previous CD, and fans weren’t quite sure what to expect. In the meantime, Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan had devoted more time to his side project band, A Perfect Circle, a band that brings a bit …

Artist: Destiny’s Child
Video: No, No, No (Part 1)
Album: Destiny’s Child

“No, No, No (Part 1)” was the very first single and music video from the female R&B quartet Destiny’s Child, right off of their self-titled debut album. Watching this music video after all of these years …

If you do not know who Drag-on is, he is a former Ruff Ryders artist who made several tracks with musical great DMX including �Ruff Ryders Anthem Remix� and �No Love For Me� which created a huge buzz for his first solo record titled �The Opposite of H2o�. …
Im With You, 2011 Album by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Before this album was released I simply couldn’t believe that the band are going to be able to create such great music as they did on this album. I thought that it was very unlikely that the guys are going to have as much inspiration as they used to …
The Unforgettable Fire, 1984 Album by U2
After the very successful album War, released in 1983, U2 have managed to release another great record so quickly afterwards. I think that this album, The Unforgettable Fire was an album which escalated their skill and level as musicians. I think that this 1984 album demonstrated how much and …
Sarah McLachlan “Laws of Illusion”
Although I have never really been an ardent fan of Sarah McLachlan, I tend to listen to her music from time to time, especially in autumn, and when I’m feeling melancholic. In my opinion, she has released one brilliant album (”Fumbling Towards Ecstasy”), and several decent ones, including “Surfacing” …
Jennifer Hudson
Jennifer Hudson CD album is unique. The title of this CD is also Jennifer Hudson. She is such an amazing singer, it’s no wonder that she has won an award before. Her voice is so precious and awesome and I felt sorry for her from the bottom …
Romantic Energy from The Twelve Girls’ Band
I was very much pleasantly surprised with The Twelve Girls’ Band’s album “Romantic Energy.” Normally I am not given to listening to fusion music, and all of my previous experiences with pop-infused traditional music were unpleasant to say the best, and usually leant in one direction or another without …
“Scream” by Chris Cornell
This is another of Chris Cornell’s solo albums but very different from anything he has ever done before. He worked with Timbaland on this, so already you’ll know it doesn’t sound like Soundgarden, Audioslave or even his other previous solo work.
I’m a huge Chris Cornell fan, so I …
Muse - Map Of The Problematique (Song)
Map Of The Problematique is a track by Muse which appears on their fourth studio effort, Black Holes And Revelations. This album is filled with a lot of songs that have become quite while known and I believe that although …
The Rolling Stones - Factory Girl (Song)
Factory Girl is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Beggars Banquet. Factory Girl starts off with a nice acoustic guitar pattern which actually reminds me of Led Zeppelin for some reason and then a tabla, an Indian percussion instrument comes in, which further reminds …
Jacks Mannequin - Everything in Transit
Ever heard of Jack’s Mannequin? You should have. Not because of rising popularity or the fact that the band recently accompanied Plain White T’s and Panic! At The Disco on tour, but because of the melodic, piano-filled tracks that fill debut album “Everything in Transit”. Jack’s Mannequin brings a …
Bob Dylan - Diamond Joe (Song)
Diamond Joe is a track by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Good As I Been To You. Right from the opening section of this track, Dylan’s vocal tone really doesn’t appeal to me very much but then again he went through a long period where his vocal …
Death Cab For Cutie - Soul Meets Body (Song)
Soul Meets Body is a song by Death Cab For Cutie which appears on their record Plans. The track opens up with a mid-paced tempo before a definitive rhythm is established primarily by the drums and the vocals come in with a gentle delivery characteristic of Death Cab For …
“Dreaming Out Loud” Album by OneRepublic
OneRepublic’s “Dreaming Out Loud” is a stellar debut album, in my humble opinion. OneRepublic is a rock band that recently became very popular on the radio, MTV, MySpace, and pretty much everywhere else in the music scene. It came out awhile ago but I just recently picked it up …
Neutral Milk Hotel - Where You’ll Find Me Now (Song)
Where You’ll Find Me Now is a song by Neutral Milk Hotel which is the sixth song on their debut release On Avery Island. Opening up with Magnum’s vocals along with some guitars strumming behind him, Where You’ll Find Me Now thankfully returns the sound to a more accessible …
The Fray CD
I am a great fan of this band, and have been for a long time. While several of the songs can occasionally be heard playing in shops, most of the songs aren’t as well known, but can be bought on CDs or on the internet. This particular CD (called …
Sunshine
The song ‘Sunshine’ is a simple sort of song performed by John Denver. It has a very good melody that makes you want to sing along. It reminds me of camping along side of a lake and waking to the sun rising over the water. Then when it rises …
Barbra Streisand: Timeless - Live in Concert CD
Barbra Streisand’s Timeless - Live in Concert CD is, well, timeless. It’s perfection. It’s astounding. It’s fabulous. It’s awesome. It’s incredible. It’s … wonderful! I could easily fill up this review with nothing but superlatives because I just adore this New Year’s …
Tal Bachman by Tal Bachman CD
This CD has a great sound to it, definitely worthy of a review for epinions. If you don’t have this one, you need it!
Tal Bachman’s self titled CD includes the mega hit She’s So High, the one we all know and love. This CD was released in 1999 …
Watching You by Rodney Atkins
This song is a great example for all the parents out there. And I like how the lyrics convey a serious issue in a very comical way. A lot of parents don’t believe that the way they act and what they say affects their children. But it really does. …
DBSK (TVXQ/Tohoshinki)
DBSK, also known as TVXQ or Tohoshinki, is one of the most prominent boy bands in Asia. Well known for their exceptional vocals, charming looks, and admirable personalities to top it off, it’s no wonder they also have “The World’s Biggest Fan Club” (Cassiopeia, with over eight hundred thousand …
Boss MT-2 Distortion Pedal
I bought my Boss DS-1 used on eBay for $25 about three years ago. I had just started playing guitar and I wanted a basic distortion pedal that sounded good but was really cheap. I heard good things about it so I decided I’d give it a shot.
When …
Green Day - Peacemaker (Song)
Peacemaker is a song by Green Day which appears on their most recent album, 21st Century Breakdown. The song starts off with a sample of some random noise before leading into an acoustic guitar part along with a distinct bass line and drum rhythm, it sort of sounds like …
Air1 90.1 FM Radio Station
Some of you may like surfing through the radio stations listening to a song here, a song there —“ but maybe some of you surf for the same reason I do: that I can’t seem to find anything good. On the rare occasion that I do, as the …
Exodus - Bonded By Blood
Overview —“ Bonded By Blood, the debut album released by Exodus definitely established them as a thrash band to watch over. I think the only reason why this album didn’t receive a lot more attention, although it did still receive a lot, is because it was released in 1985 …
John Denver: Rocky Mountain Christmas CD
John Denver: Rocky Mountain Christmas CD is a really nice album to play during the holidays especially if you like that crisp, outdoor feel, because that is present all through this record. Denver was known for his environmental beliefs and the song choices for this album reflect that.
It …
Musiq Soulchild, Backagain
I love Musiq’s album Loveandmusiq, but I’m not really feeling this new album he has out. The album is selling like crazy, but I feel that it’s missing the great songs that would make it a great album.
I guess you can’t expect an artist to make a hit …
The Rolling Stones - I Got The Blues (Song)
I Got The Blues is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Sticky Fingers. The song starts off with a clean guitar riff which actually goes on for a pretty fair amount of time and it has a very melancholy tone to it which certainly …
Dean Boca 12 String Electric Guitar
The Dean Boca 12 String Semi-Hollow Body Electric Guitar (wow that’s a long name) is my favorite 12 string guitar, after the Rickenbacker. I ordered it online from Musicians Friend. A lot of 12 strings have a nice sound but lack that classic 60’s quality that is …
The Flaming Lips - Your Bats (Song)
Your Bats is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their album Embryonic. The track opens up with a guitar playing with a wah-wah effect before the drums and other instrumentation also abruptly and awkward join into the mix. Interesting enough, all of this instrumentation drops out …
Animal Collective - Water Curses (Song)
Water Curses is a song by Animal Collective and is the title track of their 2008 EP release. Opening with a synthesizer intro, Water Curses quickly transitions into a lighthearted and easily flowing track which the instruments and Tare’s voice do a good job of establishing. Although the songwriting …
George Michael
George Michael is a musical legend who first gained his success in the band Wham! I was a big fan of Wham, and still listen to most of their work to date. However, I am a bigger fan of George Michael�s Solo work, most notably, Spinning the Wheel and …
Maxi Priest (singer)
I generally do not listen to reggae music, but when I do I usually tend to gravitate to the older types of reggae music like those from the nineteen nineties and sometimes, very rarely, the late eighties. This also means that I tend to prefer certain artistes such as …
Carnivore
Carnivore is the debut album by the band fronted by Type O Negative vocalist Peter Steele, this was his second band, and first real release to my knowledge. The album was released in 1986 on Roadrunner Records (back when Roadrunner Records was a metal label) the album fast paced …
Fireworks (song) from Katy Perry
During the 90’s there is song called Beautiful from Christina Aguilera. During the first year of 20th century, there is song called Ugly from Sugababes and now, year 2010 Katy Perry made another song that I will love and treasure. I love songs like this that gives out important …
ZAYN - PILLOWTALK (Song)
More than a year ago or so, everyone was so devastated to hear that the heartthrob member Zayn Malik of the highly-popular band One Direction decided to leave the band. At that point, no one was sure why he decided to leave a band so popular. However, just a …

Piece Of Me by Brittney Spears
Piece Of Me by Brittney Spears is a song about how the press makes her look in the magazines and papers. I like this song because she is talking about her self but explaining it by saying all they want is to be her and they just want a …
